already better + a new theory

If you spend any time with me personally, then you may hear me say "I have a new theory". Sean hears this all the time. And a new theory always presents itself in a moment of clarity. I'm so happy to say that clarity has returned. I'm already feeling better again and while I know in my heart of hearts that everything is always working out for the best, it was really nice to be reminded of that by so many of you who left comments ~ thanks for reminding me. The mental break I've given myself from figuring out what's next has been especially nice and I'm honestly looking forward to the next "door that will open". I'm excited to see what it will be!

So my new theory is this ~ if you're feeling disappointed the best way out and back to hopeful optimism is to throw a 4 course Italian dinner party for your friends! It's true ~ Just the simple act of making your home beautiful, inviting and cozy for your guests is enough to appreciate how wonderful life already is. That and~ cooking and enjoying a delicious meal and sharing it with good company all accompanied by red wine of course and you will be well on your way to a brighter spirit. Oooh and I can't forget having a delightful breakfast with a new friend also helps, as does cooking the Spaghetti Lunghi found at Trader Joes, I mean, excuse me Trader Giottos. Have you seen this crazy long spaghetti there? You can't miss the bright yellow packaging. I'm sorry but eating super long spaghetti noodles is just good fun.
